Patrick Wilson (Insidious, Watchmen) will be appearing in Ridley Scott's highly anticipated sci-fi thriller Prometheus. The news comes from an interview the actor did with the St. Peterburg Times. I am guessing that Wilson shot his scenes before starting work on his upcoming CBS drama, A Gifted Man.

Here is what the article stated:

"Wilson will need to leverage everything he's learned from Shorecrest to a new role in the highly anticipated Alien prequel Prometheus (directed by original Alien auteur Ridley Scott) for his latest challenge — creating a rare TV drama success on Fridays."

The Playlist then confirmed the story, but his character is still unknown. The movie has been filming for a couple of months now, and the story and characters are being kept under wraps.

Wilson is a great actor, I am excited to see him on screen in this film and his new show. What are your thoughts on this news?
